KILLING BY MULCHING.
Where there is a small patch of this

ually by mulching. DO not cut of the

pressing it down so that they cannot
rise up. If new sprouts rise through
the mulch bend them down under the
straw or add more. This mulchng
process should not be tried under trees
that it is desired to save. 1t will de-
stroy them as we'll as the weeds.
Wherever dirt from excavation is piled
around trees in Summer while in full
leaf it is pretty sure to kill them. The
leaves turn yellow because the extra
covering over the roots excludes the
air. In Fall or Winter there is less LA
bility to injury, as the soil is loosened
by freezing and the tree will start new
roots higher up if not covered too deep

BEST TIME To CUT OATS
When oats were Graded in the old
DAYS. before the sclf-bnder came into
use, they were commonly cut rather
green and left to dry day in the
swath before being bound. This was
better for the straw than the present
practice of leaving oats until dead ripe
and then binding at once. In thresh-
ing oats by hand much more use was
formerly made of the straw than now.
! Cattle and horses would eat a little
bright straw daily and possibly find a
little grain in it. In this imperfect
hand threshing only plump heavy grain
was got out. That lighter and chaily
was left in the straw. Some farmers
attribute the deterioration of oats tC
the thorough threshing they receive.
1t breaks some of the large plump
grains and leaves the lighter berries tc
be used rs seed. 1t is perhaps worth
trying to hand thresh enough oats TO
seed in the old way. american CtAtt

"sIN DwELLETH IN ME-

eth in me-" Rom. vii. 20.
What does Paul here mean ? Does
he teach that sin is of the flesh Some
think he does. He says, eff what I
would not, that 1 do" He evidently
refers to something here that ,oills.
Does the body will? Did you ever feel
a thought creeping through your body,

say no. Then is it - clear. that he is
not talking about what his flesh does?

Man without spirit would be no more

But he says, "It is no more that do it, "

declares, he surely does not intend to
contradict himself by declaring that he
could do no wrong. When he says, at

THE HEBREW CLASSICS.

There is strong effort this year to
extend the study of the English Bible
in our colleges. This is not ill, if it be
fifty taught. But, after all, we should
in this way come at only superficial
knowledge of biblical literature. We
should be holding converse through an
interpreter. In the case of the New
Testament, the Greek would, no doubt,
be often called in-as long, at least, as
most college-bred men study little
Greek for purposes other than biblical.
But with the Old Testament we should
be on another and less intimate footing.
True, the Hebrew literature is trans
latable, in high degree, but no trans
lation fully represents the original.
Emerson was not at his wisest when he
uttered his preference for English ver-
sions of all the great works of other lit
eratures. Certainly no English YER
sion of the Old Testament now avail
able does justice to the majestic beauty
of the Hebrew. 1 do not here lay stress
upon the venerable age of the language
of Moses. AS an English classic the
Old Testament is three hundred years
old; as a Hebrew classic, it is two or
three thousand. But apart from that,
it is worthy of study in its primal form,
not only because that form is noble
dress, but also because the form fits the
thought so closely. What those should
aim at, then, who desire revival of
interest, not all professional, in Hebrew
literature, is a more general and thor
ough study of the Hebrew language.
The brave start forward which Hebrew
studies have in recent years taken
among us ought to be fostered by men
of letters.-Ihe Critic.

HANDS OFF THE SABBATH!

A strong and bold movement is now
under way in various parts of the Union
having for its aim the overthrow of the
Sabbath. The movement started, if
we mistake not, in Pennsylvania, but
it has extended eastward and westward,
and now embraces several States. Let
any one imagine what would follow if
law proposed by this Personal Liberty
party should be enacted. Throw open
the doors of the saloons, liquor stores,
and concert gardens in every commu-
nifty on Sunday afternoons and even
ings and what would be left in this
country worth living for2 Think of
our streets being filled on such evenings,
as they often are on other evenings of
the week, with drunken men Keeling up
and down or gathered in knots before
the entrances of the rum-shops, the
noise of revelry coming from within
these places, the air polluted with OBJ
scenity and blasphemy! 1t will not do
to assume that this movement has no
serious meaning in it; that it is fraught
with no particular danger. 1t is no
false alarm we are sounding. The peril
is great and imminent. The enemy is
strong in numbers and influence. 1t
has vast amounts Of money and tens Of
thousands of votes at its command. 1t
is vindictive, determined, aggressive.
Our only hope for the continued pre-
servation of our Sabbath lies, in the
first place, in the direction of intelli-
gent and discriminating political action
having for its aim the election to Office
of sober, honest, and God-fearing men.
In the second place, it lies in bringing
the pressure of public sentiment to
bear upon the legislature as whole to
the end that even those who are con-
trolled by self-interest only may under
stand that it is not for their interest to
NEEDLE with an institution so sacred,
so dear to the great mass of the Amer
lean people as the American Sabbath.
Every man who believes in day of
rest, either as Christian or civil in
stitution, should let his voice beEheard
on this question, and that in no uncer-
tain tones. Let every man in his own
sphere, whether it be large or small, ex-
ert his influence in favor of the preser-
walton of the Sabbath against the en-
croachments of the liquor power. And
when it comes to the casting OF ballots
let every Christian voter, every man
who believes in the sanctity of the
home, the family, in Gods appointed
day of rest, exercise his suffrage right
in the line of those convictions.-C Chris
tan at Work.
